Andrew, can you show the line for mate in 29?. Mine only finds a mate in 30.
Usually, this is no reason to be concerned, but I'd like to look at the shorter
mate.
The line I get is:
1. Kg5 Kf7 2. Kh6 Kg8 3. h4 Kh8 4. Kh5 Kg8 5.
Kg4 Kf8 6. Kf4 Ke8 7. Kg5 Kf7 8. Kf5 Ke7 9. Ke5
Kd7 10. Kf6 Kc6 11. Kg7 Kb5 12. Kxh7 {EGTB}
12...Kxa5! 13. h5 b5! 14. h6 b4! 15. Kg7!! b3
16. h7!! Ka4 17. h8=Q!! Ka3! 18. Qa8+! Kb2! 19.
Qa4 Kc3! 20. Qe4 b2 21. Qb1 Kc4 22. Qxb2 Kd3!
23. Qb3+ Kd4 24. Kf6! Ke4 25. Qc3 Kd5! 26. Qb4!
Kc6 27. Ke6! Kc7 28. Qb5! Kc8! 29. Kd6! Kd8 30.
Qb8# {1001}

Dieter
